Inflammation is the body's ancestral response to its greatest
threats: injury and foreign microbes. But as the threats we face
have evolved, new science reveals simmering inflammation underneath
the surface of everything from heart disease and cancer to
mysterious autoimmune conditions. In A Silent Fire,
gastroenterologist Shilpa Ravella takes us on a lyrical quest
across time, around the world and into the body to reveal hidden
inflammation at the root of modern disease-and how we can control
it. We meet an eccentric Russian zoologist, the passionate yet
flawed inventor of Kellogg's Cornflakes, and dedicated researchers
working on the frontiers of medical and nutritional science today.
With fascinating case studies, Ravella debunks common myths about
"anti-inflammatory" lifestyles-adding or eliminating any one food,
for example, is not a cure-all-and unmasks the links between food,
the microbiome and inflammation. A paradigm-shifting understanding
of human health, A Silent Fire shows us how to live not only long,
but well.
